i will explain she didint sad all true, yes you may use her and yes they do this, but it will cost you so much not worth as they after 20 retire to eventually have fun :D all that crap is bs. geisha is basically a host you pay she comes, basically old fart sits and calls geisha for fun. so men can buy her which will cost too much as her virginity is owned by house. so thery try to sell it as she owns money to house. read books boys and girls.

I like to think that Komurasaki's suicide, while sad, was her final huge "fuck you" to the owner

A very well-written and concise presentation, using the right words with clarity and without superfluous sentence. ! Single women can get pregnant through artificial insemination procedures, therefore homosexuality does not necessarily result in low birth rate. It should be noted that in the 20th and 21th C., Japanese entertainment industry has produced the all-female Takarazuka Revue (1913), then the all-female idol group (which has South Korean and Chinese versions later, such as the SNH48 Group and its 4 regional branches in China), the Manga lesbian books, the Yuri-themed (百合 or White Lily, a term still used by South Korea and China’s lesbian-themed entertainment products) movies/tv series etc…. Therefore, this Japanese sub-culture even still very underground in the country, has influenced other lesbian cultures in East and Southeast Asia. Japanese women are probably the least liberated among women in developed nations, in comparison even to China, they do not enjoy the same freedom “to be themselves and to live their life according to their aspirations” as young Chinese women in the first quarter of the 21st C. For example, the majority of Chinese female performers of the show biz industry do have the courage to express their sexual orientation in public without having the resulting negative consequences, many mainstream actresses/singers as well as younger entertainers of the SNH48 and its 4 regional branches are openly lesbians and live as couples. With regards to these latter, they are welcomed by their millions of fans and encouraged by their employer to be in partnership with each other. Further, the lesbian live-streamers community is very active in China, these young lesbians are very popular and garner millions of fans in the country, they do live-streaming at least 3 times a week and maintain a strong network not only between themselves but also with their female fans. Due to its large demographics, China has the largest lesbian population in the world, also has the largest production of lesbian-themed entertainment products !

This video is overly biased against the floating world

i watch another video with some 14 yrs old young lady who has papa katsu.. she is doing it because she has to go in some cafe i believe it is called "con cafe" with male host. she had sex with older guys so she can spend for the guy on the cafe.. really it is so saddening😢

YOUR COMPARISON AND REASONINGS ARE SHAMELESS BULL CRAP 🤣

A higher culture.

A proud, righteous woman - a curious description of a prostitute.

The information in this is totally in correct. Tayu and oiran are NOT the same

Thank you very much for your work!

Gosh yujo life sounded so awful 💔😢

Hello! Nice work! Could you share your images and information sources, please?

What isbthis sound??😂

Give me C. Viper Makoto Necro infused Twelve Kyosuke (Rival schools)

There must be more to life than working myself to death to keep the Corporations and shareholders happy.

The voice is terrible

sounds like moderna day slave contract of the entertainment business

Enjoyed this one. More than just the usual run of the mill Japanese cliche garbage.

This channel is great. Thanks!

Entered not knowing what to expect, stayed for Sociology and Sarcasm. Have a nice Holiday and Happy New Year!!!

I hate that they leave out the men and boys that are in the same positions and or get sexually exploited without even getting paid for the service. The double standard is real even in traditional countries.

Families sell their children to these people, and they are SLAVES for the rest of their lives. If you do research, some they were sold to these brothels and if they are lucky, one of these men will choose them to be their forever servant. Stop the propaganda! This is child trafficking!

I am disgusted by these comments. These are young girls being groomed to be servants for random wealthy men. This girl was 16! There is nothing beautiful about that. If you do research, you will notice these girls work tirelessly daily...in the morning, they go through grueling training, and at night, they are at parties with billionaires who plow them with liquor. They get home at 2 or 3 in the morning. They don't get but a few days off out of a whole year! All of these women have sadness in their eyes. They are slaves. And with the Kimono...lets not get it twisted. You notice only certain men can get them ready for their "tea parties"? They are making sure none of the miekos or geishas have not been tainted. They can't take take their clothes off with that elaborate Kimono you come back to the brothel (aka the official geisha house). I'm just going to end here because I'm disturbed.

I hate AI voices

I'm just waiting for the incels to show up screaming about "wokeism" or something stupid like that. In regards to the video, well done.

This was a fascinating topic! So well presented I really love this channel looking forward to more!😃👍

A depressing subject, but one that someone needs to highlight. I echo the other commentor that this deserves more views.

If you are able, can sources to this information be provided? Either in English or in Japanese.

It never stops to amaze how people see two women in love and sharing their lives and instantly go: Gal pals, clearly! Also "weird and alarming" is how I am going to identify from now on, haha

well written. the text to speech voice took some getting used to, but the content was well researched.

this video was really great to watch. I can tell how much research and effort was put into it

so interesting

there is a disinterest in the lesbian experience. many people (especially straight women) are interested in mlm relationships, but not that many care about the emotional depth behind a lesbian one (another form of misogyny). you can even see it in manga and anime. there are far more yaoi/shounen-ai manga than yuri/shoujo-ai ones. they also tend to have a bigger budget behind them. but i think more people will start caring the more they are exposed to media such as this. great video 👏

this was really interesting to watch :)

Sorry, let me correct the error. 06:26:18 Globally, the number of people who transition their gender from male to female is roughly double compared to the people who transition from male to female →compared to the people who transition from female to male.

This is well written and a unique perspective when compared with the so-called "progressive West", where minority identity tags are now considered as justification for being socially elevated, rather than suppressed or ignored. Now, if you are an able-bodied heterosexual white male, your social credit score is waning to the point of irrelevance. If you are black, gay/trans and disabled, your social position is truly "peak". That is my opinion.

Thanks for your comment. We explored the history of Tayu in this video. Have a look at it, please.kzfaq.info/get/bejne/htegoZdescvNnnk.html

Tayuu were imperial entertainers who NEVER offered sexual services of any kind. They were some of the most educated women of their day and they were treasued and respected even by the Emperor himself, and could even REFUSE an invitation to his banquet. The confusion between these sacred artisans and the noble prostitutes comes from oiran taking fashion cues from the tayuu, copying their hair accessories and kimono styles when they performed something called the "oiran dochu," which would have been the only time the general public saw them out and about. Some oiran even went as far as to call themselves tayuu to sound even more noble due to the respect that came with such a title. The proper umbrella term for prostitues was "yuujo." Tayuu were also only based in the city of Kyoto, because the imperial family resided there during the era of the Shogunate, when their practice first popped up. When power was returned to the Emperor in 1869, he and his court moved to Tokyo and the tayuu lost their clientele. This is what made them decline so quickly. Now, it's worth pointing out that oiran and most other yuujo were also highly educated and skilled and deserved the respect they received. They were, by all accounts, artisans in addition to being prostitutes, and are even today mistaken by historians as tayuu because of this. Yuujo were so much more than pretty women in expensive clothes who played music. They were women who suffered for centuries at the hands of vapid, wealthy men who wished to have their way with them. History has largely forgotten these women, with not even so much as a mention of their existence to be found anywhere in the former pleasure districts. No plaque, monument, nothing. They were cultural icons and ironically played a massive role in preserving traditional arts, yet they've been forgotten by the world. These extraordinary women deserve so much more recognition for the lives they were subjected to.

sad that shes not as well known as dazai, murakami etc, id go as far as to say i prefer her (in terms of writing, etc) more then both dazai and murakami

yeee, proxxenetism in antik time,,s was difrent ween giant was come, much of them died.

Taking customers at the age of 15. 😍😍😍😍

Systemic abuse of underage girls. Jeffrey Epstein. 😍😍😍😍

Great introduction to the subject. Thank you!

Gay people have been around since before any existing government or religion and will be here until there are no longer people on the planet and yet some cultures seek to "exterminate" us. A very very fine act of futility and ignorance.

The emblem you mention might be a ''Quincunx'' which often appears as a decorative design element on various architectural features, such as windows, doors, and even inlay patterns on floors.

I am trying to find out if a group of four squares overlaid by one in the middle, found on several 1880’s US houses is a Kamon or another Japanese symbol.

Thank you for a fascinating history but please get rid of the irritating, useless background clicking or any other background noises in future posts. x

Tayuu were not prostitutes, but rather high ranking geishas

further proof that gay ppl were always around and are not a new thing!
